Christina Hovland has revealed the  cover for Rachel, Out of Office!

Releasing January 25, 2021

Out of reach, out of touch, out of her mind.

Single mom, Rachel Gibson seriously needs a break. Between an absent ex-husband, rowdy twin boys, managing the PTA, and running her own business, her candle isn’t burning at both ends, it’s a full-blown puddle of wax. She’s the go-to girl for other entrepreneurs, handling all the tasks they dread. Social media posts? She’s got it. Website updates? She’s on it. Light bookkeeping? Oh, yes.

Thank goodness she’s about to get a reprieve when her in-laws plan to whisk her boys away for a summer of fun at the family lake house. But when her ex backs out of the family retreat, and her former inlaws insist she attend their yearly vacation summit with her munchkins, she finds herself in a pickle. Even though she’s drowning in to-dos, she’s horrible at saying no — especially when it comes to her kids.

Once Rachel arrives at the lake house, she struggles to keep up with work and balance the demands of family all the while fending off pesky new feelings about her ex-brother-in-law. Which makes her start to wonder… Is falling for her ex-husband’s brother just one more messy complication added to the dumpster fire?  Or is anything possible when she’s out of office…

Overall Grade: ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

I fell in love with Ava Ryan with her Fairy Tale Billionaires. There is something I love about her romances. For one, they are contained to a shorter specific time, the heroes are a bit broken while her heroines are mostly self-sufficient, independent, and the impetus for the heroes to look inward and embrace love. In that series, the billionaires have stalwart, very masculine outer appearances, and it takes the heroines to help them expose their soft underbellies. I loved each of their stories because the chances of the Brothers Black readily falling in love is questionable, yet Ava Ryan carefully crafts journeys for them that poke at their emotional vulnerabilities. Their journeys pull you through her books. 

With Ryan’s newest book, His Lost Love, the same qualities that I love exist: this is written during a fixed period of time even though the hero, Liam, and heroine, Mia, have history, serious history; the journey forward is fraught with trials and tribulations, yet the story ends in a sweet happy ending; and Ryan’s writing is once again seamless in its expression of Liam and Mia’s journey. 

What feels different from the Fairy Tale Billionaires series is the heroes. Like the Black brothers, the outer appearance of Liam is masculine. However, Liam has a vulnerability that he readily shows. There are times when he does protect that vulnerability, but he is more apt to show his emotions, more than Mia, her heroine. As Mia’s brother and Liam’s best friend, Michael, plays a small part in their story, we also see that same emotional availability in his character. This feels very different from Ryan’s first series, and I found myself shocked at various moments in his and Mia’s story when he expresses his emotions. I’m not talking about anger (although there is some of that in the story) rather he readily shows tears, pain, and love in his eyes throughout the story. It doesn’t make Liam any less masculine either. Ryan doesn’t fall into the trap that female romance writers fall into when they emasculate their heroes unintentionally. Everything that makes Liam masculine exists even when he’s showing his heart. It made him my favorite character, to be honest. I read a review from someone who said she thought he read as stalkerish. That is definitely not the case. These two happen to show up in the same places because they have mutual friends and acquaintances. If there is any criticism of Liam, it is his waffling between using Mia to get over her and his undying love for her. It’s obvious that they are fated for each other. That he continuously moves between those perspectives makes his story frustrating at times. 

My least favorite character in His Lost Love is Mia. I love independent, ambitious heroines. They are my favorite to read in romance. Yet, Ryan crafts Mia with invulnerability that circumvents her attraction to Liam. To be blunt: Mia annoyed me. Her words and actions don’t match, and I think Ryan took this too far in the story. We find out the reasons for her constructed walls against Liam around the 60ish percent range in the story, and you realize quickly that Mia is an active participant in her break up.  From there, Mia holds tight to this forcefield. Again and again, she makes choices that make you want to scream at her. Ryan does explain it at some point, but the constant contention between the two of them causes the story to slow at points. I found my mind drifting from their story. 

I do think His Lost Love is a strong foundational story for this next series, the Manhattan Billionaires. By the end of this story, you will be ready for the next book that I believe might focus on Mia’s brother, Michael. And this reader is ready for it. 

His Lost Love is a story of second chances, of letting go of the hurts of the past to find your happy ending. Ava Ryan clearly and deftly expresses that message through the journey of Liam and Mia. If you like contentious (I wouldn’t call it enemies-to-lovers because they aren’t really enemies) stories about moving beyond the past, shaded by a spicy physicality between a hero and heroine, then you should read Ava Ryan’s newest book. 

In love and romance,

Professor A

Blurb:
How hard can it be?

That was the question rolling around Larissa Mason’s mind just before she asked Hollis Hudson to be her fake boyfriend.
It was only supposed to be for five minutes, after all.
Granted, that was also before she felt his hand on the small of her back as he charmed the heck out of her family.

She hadn’t heard his laugh yet either.

And it was definitely before she saw the football god shirtless. Otherwise, she would’ve had an idea of just how hard some things could be.
It turns out that pretending to be in love with a crazily handsome, somewhat enigmatic, and absolutely unforgettable tight end (that has an amazing tight end) is easy.
Reminding herself that just because opposites attract doesn’t mean they’re forever is much harder.

What they have isn’t love—it’s a relationship pact. Right?

About the Author:
USA Today and Washington Post bestselling author Adriana Locke lives and breathes books. After years of slightly obsessive relationships with the flawed bad boys created by other authors, Adriana has created her own.

She resides in the Midwest with her husband, sons, and two dogs. She spends a large amount of time playing with her kids, drinking coffee, and cooking. You can find her outside if the weather’s nice and there’s always a piece of candy in her pocket.

His Lost Love by Ava Ryan is now live! 

I can buy and sell half the country… but I can’t afford to lose her a second time.

I made my name fixing hearts.
Most people know me as a world-class cardiac surgeon.
Even more know the device I invented that made billions while saving lives.
I’ve achieved success beyond my wildest dreams–and I’ve always dreamed big.
Funny how the one heart I can’t put back together is my own.

That’s why I’ve returned to New York.
More accurately–she’s why.
In the fashion world, Mia has arrived. But to me, she’ll always be the one who got away.

Back in college, she claimed she loved me.
Then she ripped my heart to shreds.
Now I can have anything I want. Any toy. Any woman.
And what I want is her–out of my system. This time, I plan to be the one leaving.
They say revenge is best served cold, but once Mia is back in my bed?

It may be too hot to walk away from…

TEASER

ABOUT ANA 

 

Ana Balen was born in Zagreb, Croatia, where she still lives with her husband, their son (read boss!) and the son’s pet rabbit named Shhh! (or some other gibberish that’s the favorite of their son for the day.)

She spends her days driving her husband up the wall (when he can’t get her ass up from the bed in the mornings), reading and daydreaming, or following orders from a three-year-old. In the hectic life she leads (and loves every second of it), she never thought about writing. But, then one day a name popped in her head, then, the snippets of things, and she sat down and started typing. Next thing, she wrote a book. And now, she’s about to release her seventh!

Excerpt

“If you two will excuse me, I have to use the ladies’ room,” I say, and point at my empty glass. “Can you ask for another martini for the road?”

“High altitude,” Jeannette warns me. “Two more and you’ll be showing your favorite pair of panties to the entire restaurant—and this time you won’t be able to claim it was an accident.”

She cackles and I think she’s the drunk one of the two of us.

“Bitch,” I growl and march to the bathroom thinking about how I’m going to get back at her.

I swear she’s so loud, a few tables around us hear her and give me the look. Maybe I should tell her wife some embarrassing stories from when we were young. There’re plenty of those. That might keep them around for a couple of hours—at least one more hour. It’s too early to go back to the hotel.

On my way to the restroom, I try to come up with the best one. Then pull out my phone to see if I have any old pictures. I don’t pay much attention when I enter the restroom, put away my phone, and enter the stall. After I’m done and while I’m washing my hands, I know exactly how Jeannette is going to pay for what she just did.

“Well, this is either a treat or the worst invasion of my privacy.”

I jump and shriek. My heart beats fast but I spin around toward the unexpected male voice. I’m not sure where I should concentrate my attention, his handsome face or the thick and meaty treat he’s holding in his hand.

Yummy, talk about girth and length.

“Wait, what are you doing in the ladies’ room?”

He laughs while putting away his well-endowed package. “I didn’t know they had urinals in the ladies’ room.”

“In the what?” I shriek and look around the bathroom.

And fuck if this isn’t worse than the airport. It’s Jeannette’s fault. She distracted me.

“Oh well,” I say, smiling. “I leave you with your …”

“You should show me something to make up for what just happened,” he says, with a hinting tone. “You know a tit for tat.”

“What?” I cover my boobs. “No.”

“Come on, at least show me those lacy panties everyone saw at the airport.”

“How do you know about my panties?”

“You and your sister don’t know the definition of inside voice,” he says and my cheeks heat up. Well, I gave a show to the entire restaurant. “At least, I think she’s your sister. You two could be twins, you know.”

“We are twins,” I clarify. “And no, I won’t be showing you anything.”

He winks at me. “You liked what you saw, we could have a party with him as long as you’re willing to share.”
